Step 1 INSPECTIONA certified energy inspector examines and measures the home to find all the opportunities for saving energy.

Step 2 DETAILED ANALYSISSpecialized software produces a report which shows savings and costs for energy efficiency improvements and provides tips on ways to save more energy and reduce energy bills.

Step 3 IMPLEMENTATIONThe report provides access to a database of contractors, a direct line to an energy expert, and access to other energy products and services.

Step 4 FINANCINGThe report lists the improvements that, when financed, will save more than they cost. It includes information on the Streamlined (k) Limited Repair Program by which homebuyers and homeowners can finance up to an additional $35,000 into their mortgage for energy-efficiency improvements identified by their home inspector.
